But I am not sure whether there are some side effects in Emacs. Actually, more than one files contain such lines. If no side effects, maybe we should change all of them. Moreover, some .el and .texi files have coding variables in the headers, which doesn't work in XEmacs either (unfortunately, the recent CVS Emacs breaks the coding system setting of emacs-mime.texi because of a bug.)
